  • Very interesting shortcut, thanks, Steve
    I have usually just used the context menu option to do this.

  • Unless they changed it in 2016, if your grid options are setup correctly for including headers, just a regular CTRL-C will do it.  No need for the more complex combinations.

  • In 2014 CTRL C, CTRL+ALT+Cand CTRL+Shift+C all work for me to copy data and headers to Excel

  • Nice shortcut for those who don't know it.

  • I always right click and copy with headers.  I shows the ctl+shift+c key combination in the menu but I never do it that way.

    But that's not default option. I actually prefer having the option to decide if I want headers or not because at times I only need the values.

    I use this to copy with headers every day.  It's very useful and quicker than using the mouse.

  • Good to know.  Thanks Steve.

    I've set the default options to include the headers with Ctrl-C because, 99.9% of the time, I want the headers.  Horses for courses, as they say.
